Todd an American who had cultural shock in India because he had completely no idea about india culture.First problem was in the taxi station in the airport the drivers were asking him to take him to the bus station but when he went to the bus station he faced a difficulty to enter the train, but he meet to Mr.Puro who take him to his home in Gharapuri. Also he find that there are different in the work in USA every person work alone but in indian work to gather after along time he adapt the way india people live. Few days later, he starts to make friends with Indians,Todd realizes the fact that Aisha is such a smart girl, and she has done many great things at work.At the end Mr.Tood achieved his goal, but his manager came to India and he told him that he will go to china and the call center in India will be closed. After thinking he decided to quit and he back to America. The examples from the movie of Hofstede’s Power Distance (High v Low) and Individualism v Collectivism is in USA the power distance for the boss but in india use group distance make the different in the work, Also the have the equality between the man and woman.
